Do y'all use a VPN?

[ksalter123]

If so, which VPN do you use? I'm looking to get one myself but I'm worried about the logging, even though they say no logging. But we all know companies lie.

I am curious about VPNs myself

Only when I go to places I don't want my service provider to know.

I use a VPN all the time. Doesn't matter what I'm doing, where I'm at, etc. VPN is always enabled.
I use Proton VPN, which is based out of Switzerland, and does not retain logs. Search them out. I've been very, very pleased with them.

Proton doesn’t keep logs unless the cops tell them too:

I have used Private Internet Access (PIA) for years.

I have a Proton mail account but use the VPN by Nord. I think it is the best. Their malware protection is excellent. Be warned, they don't run through Russia anymore. But you can still run through Georgia.

I use one for everything but be aware some sites such as OH2 will block users of VPNs. I solve that by not using their site. Not going to compromise the safety of my system for anyone.

Non-tech guy here asking.....

If you use a VPN, does it change often? And does this stop a site that may have blocked you because they disagree with your politics from blocking you? Asking for a friend who may or may have not been kicked off Reddit..in an imaginary world of course.

I use ipvanish for my streaming and hobby sites

If you're blocked on a site that you're a member of, you're most likely being blocked that way, switching locations with any VPN takes a few seconds, I believe my IP location shows as Indonesia today

[onlyAMPs4menow]

When using a VPN, I take it as BLM says, you can turn it on when you want and off when you don't want to use it? Is it an app of some sort?

With Nord you get to choose the country and the connection. Get blocked? Just come back from Japan. I like Azerbaijan or Georgia. The ads from sites are hilarious.

Bozo trick CK just blocks access to everyone coming from a specific IP address, if there was 5.10, 20 guys using the same one, they all got blocked 😂

But yeah, you can be anywhere in the world where they have a server and switch it up in a few seconds, most VPN services do the same thing
